Have you had a look online for an oring kit -

Bear in mind you will need to check the rubber used is impervious to petrol.

Measure the inside diameter, and the cross section, then look on e bay for that size “o” ring. You may have to buy 10, that’s more than you need but far cheaper than carb kits. Look out for ethanol resistant material.


I have done it this way on a cbr600 and a bandit 1200 pilot jets in the past.


Hope this helps.

In the exploded diagram it’s part of pic 18 I’ve got o rings but need the o ring that’s suitable for petrol not water

try   nrp-carbs.co.uk    I've bought bits & pieces there before, can't remember what tho ...  Maybe not always listed on the website, so best to pick up the phone and chat to them. Always been helpful with me that way.
